Can we please get more options for decals? Such as basic changes like being able to choose different colors on the numbers instead of just white and red. Can we also get basic shapes(circle, square, rectangle, diamond, triangle, etc), both filled in and just the outline, and able to choose different colors for that too?
Can we also get more options for historical decals? For example, the US could get the Jolly Roger logo from VF-17 in WWII. Or different VF insignias, or insignias from each of the AAF corps.
For Luftwaffe based decals, the Gruppe staff officer markers, undulating line, horizontal line(denoting rank or gruppe). Can we also get more decals from individual staffels? I.e. the crest of II. /JG27, or the falcon head of I. /JG51, Karaya of 9.JG52, the spade in white diamond of JG53, JG54’s Green Heart, or 9.JG54’s devils head just to name a few. Also, tail band colors would be nice too(JG2=yellow/white/yellow; JG27=green; JG52=red/white; JG54=blue; etc). And last but not least, can we please get the “Black Tulip” from Der Schwarze Teufel himself?

They actually still use Mark. It’s just that at some point in the early postwar era, Britain stopped using the “Mk” abbreviation instead used a period to denote it. So Phantom FGR.2 for example is officially read “Phantom FGR Mark 2”.
For consistency with the modern practice, the British helis should probably be written as “Lynx AH.1” and “Apache AH.1”, though.
And apparently now with the F-35B and AH-64E, Britain seems to inexplicably be just keeping the American designations instead of designating them Lightning FGR.1 (or FG.1 or FA.1) and Apache AH.2 like you’d expect. Which AFAIK is never something they’ve done before when buying American aircraft. The “F-4J(UK) Phantom II” for example was officially the Phantom F.3, with F-4J(UK) being the American export designation which was only used unofficially (though apparently frequently) by the RAF.
“Object” is still just the Soviet/Russian practice for naming of prototype or vehicles. It’s not and has never been part of Chinese practice.
Most Chinese tanks have an industrial “WZ” designation, and if they’re never adopted by the PLA that will be their only designation. Some Chinese prototypes were simply given a 3-digit number code with no “WZ” prefix (and I have no idea if there was any particular reason why this was done), but for those cases “Object” would still be incorrect. We should for example have “Object 122MT” be renamed to just “122MT”.
(Actually I’m not sure about this one. English-language sources seem to be contradictory about whether it was “WZ-122” or just “122”. I’m 99% sure that the last of the 122s did get a “WZ-122”, designation but the earlier ones might have just been “122”. And I seem to recall reading that the 3rd prototype in the series never got any name or numerical code at all for some reason.)

It’s the effort of rebranding basically. I imagine they’d consider new designations soon though, there’s talk of expanding the F-35 order to include some A’s for the RAF. Nothing concrete until the election is over
but we’ll see
Can we get a non MBT vehicle for germany above 10.3?
Something fun to spawn that isn’t a leopard at top tier, or having to drag up puma/weisel etc.

Would be fun finding all the horrific spots you could abuse on maps with that.

Something else I found of it:
The ability to make custom unit numbers that act as one single decal too would be amazing. If I want ‘151’ as a unit decal it uses up 3 slots, leaving me with barely any further options.

Croatia also made a variant carrying MTC-30 turret.
It was trialed against the UT30MK2 turret, to which it lost.

still trying to find out if it’s the MEXAS armor package that is being used (yes , i did say MEXAS) , or a diferent armor package (cant recal the name from memory , would have to check again), there are conflicting info on this subject
nope it actually isn’t BBD (altought some of the finnish T-55 did have BBD , but that’s because they were auqired from poland)
this is more distinguishable when you take a better quality pic
(and i wouldn’t have tried to figure the name of BBD , wee already have it in game)
here’s an actual Finnish T-55M with the upgraded “Brow” (BDD) turret armour, but no upgraded hull armour. (said polish T-55 bought by Finland)
